Mr. Connor Green:

With regard to developing another system, I was previously involved in hospital integration, although I have stepped aside from that. Ms Kelly is now our clinical lead. There was a waiting list trial in regard to how to prioritise children differently. At the moment, as Professor McCormack said, we are in charge of our own waiting lists and that is our responsibility. Thankfully, we still have clinical autonomy in this country to decide who should be put on a list first. Currently, I prioritise based on a child's need. I cannot give the Deputy a list of the criteria but they relate to whether kids have sores or are in pain, for example. It cannot be chronological. That is the system we are in at the moment.
